      Life in a Day--Fear too much, Love too Little

      There was so much I wanted to say, and it all came to my mind at once. Today is December 14, 2011, at 1:53 in the morning, another day of my floating life. Life, death, love, cancer, confession, fear, killing, wandering, stealing, girls, boys, Africa, Afghanistan, gays, getting up, refrigerators, dogs, water... A day in the world is full of messes. There was so much I wanted to say, and it all came to my mind at once. Today is December 14, 2011, at 1:53 in the morning, another day of my...

      just wanted to make a record

      2012's first film. No protagonist, no plot, what did you do on July 24, 2010. Everyone around the world has their own life, and if you live it seriously, you can have fun on this day, every day.
      A few minutes ago, a father said to his son: You have to be happy, because this is a happy film and it needs to have a happy ending.
      Happy New Year, my friends!

      One day in the sky, love and fear

      I don't know if it would be boring to write like this, but one day, love and fear is a topic worth thinking about.

      At the beginning, I was thinking about how to cut out so many films in post-production. This kind of selection and splicing itself is a test of the producer.
      There are also bright spots when I read it. In the morning, it started with a father and son's routine commemoration of their deceased relatives. When talking about a person who has traveled around the world on...

      In the world of life, suddenly it is like a traveler.

      The Bible has long said that there is nothing new under the sun, but I still enjoy it, not to mention that for our new generation after generation, everything in the world is new. We envy the lives of others, we long for another life, and we long for miracles to happen in ordinary life.
      The world is so big, I only glimpse a corner of it, and the vastness of life, I only feel its subtleties.
      The film starts in the early hours of the morning, the phone calls in the middle of the night,...

      On the second day of floating life, will it be different?

      A few months ago, I heard the recommendation of this film from the children of the club. I didn't watch it, and I was not busy. I just didn't want to change the leisurely and free routine life that I haven't seen for a long time this semester. Yesterday, on an ordinary day in the floating life, I saw in this film the stories of people with different skin colors and languages ​​on the same day in their ordinary lives outside the celestial dynasty.

      The first thing that touched me was...

    Creative process

    The film, directed by Ridley Scott and Kevin Macdonald in collaboration with YouTube, is a very meaningful attempt to make an experimental film. They want to find some really good material on YouTube, shot by ordinary people, and pick out what's interesting. So the producer called on the global netizens to capture the daily life on July 24, 2010 through the platform YouTube. Kevin Macdonald served as the director and was responsible...
